An Answer For Mid-Level Official Wang
Lie down in my small side room, your writing like fragrant aquatic plants
Autumn morning, with disappointment I read the royal decree.
Guarding this prefecture is like living in confinement
Unable to properly welcome out-of-town guests.
Vast open country clouds all return, blue sky at daybreak with fresh dew
Cool weather, pond lotus already spent.
Outside the window, wu tree leaves continuously fall down
Outside landscape different from the country’s capital.
Even inside the city gates the hazelnut trees are not cared for
Things that look well taken care of all belong to the army.
This area so poor, the army cannot live off the land My shame I cannot help the people.
For a along time the handsome and talented stay inside their pavilions
They do not move up and out to the capital.
Upon your return to the dawn’s audiences with the emperor
I wish I could lie down on the Huai riverbanks.
Notes:
Huai River: Major river flowing east in between the Yellow River and the Changjiang.
